Wooing My Ex-Wife

Joshua looked at Benedict who was lying in Cedrick’s arms weakly, and his smile disappeared. “I have been in this line for many years and consider myself a professional. Whether my eyes are closed or if I find myself in a dream, I assure you that I won’t make a mistake! Please trust in my abilities. I will not be careless when it comes to the lives of these two children.”

Given their longstanding relationship, Cedrick naturally placed his trust in Joshua. It would indeed be a wise decision to entrust the blood tests to him.

As soon as the two children entered the laboratory, Joshua directed his undivided attention toward conducting the bloodwork.

Concerned about Gwendolyn’s emotional well-being, Cedrick decided not to let her enter the laboratory. Instead, the two adults remained outside and patiently awaited the test results.

The couple sat side by side. Cedrick could sense the tension within Gwendolyn, so he tenderly embraced her to distract her from thinking about the children getting their blood drawn.

“It will be over very soon.”

Gwendolyn nestled into his arms, her heart overwhelmed by fear and anxiety.

Half an hour later, the lights of the laboratory went off. They assumed that the results must be out.

Gwendolyn gently released herself from Cedrick’s embrace and rose to her feet. She then strode toward the door of the laboratory.

As the sound of the door unlocking reverberated through the hallway, the couple’s attention was drawn to Joshua, who stood on the other side, holding the results in his hands. Adjusting his black-rimmed glasses, he appeared ready to step out and join them.

Gwendolyn asked anxiously, “How is it?”

Wearing a solemn expression, Joshua cast a brief glance at Gwendolyn before shifting his gaze to Cedrick.

“There’s good news and bad news.”

Bad news…

Gwendolyn clenched her fists. “We are prepared for the worst. Please, go ahead and tell us.”
